"...if we drag our feet and fail to act, this crisis will turn into a catastrophe. We'll continue to get devastating job reports like today's—month after month, year after year." -- President Obama 2/6/09

Obama signed an executive order today create an outside panel of experts to help steer the economy out of a tailspin. Great, more buereaucracy, more cooks in the kitchen. But anyway...

President Armageddon continued his doom and gloom fear mongering in an effort to pass the Congressional Radical Anti-American Pork (CRAAP) "stimulus". Today he has introduced a new strategy, blaming Congress for being "irresponsible", while he continues to vote "present".

"These numbers demand action. It is inexcusable and irresponsible to get bogged down in distraction and delay while millions of Americans are being put out of work. It is time for Congress to act," Obama said bluntly.

"The American people did not choose more of the same," Obama said. "They did not send us to Washington to get stuck in partisan posturing, or to turn back to the same tried and failed approaches that were rejected in the last election. They sent us here with a mandate for change, and the expectation that we would act."
